The fourth and final season of the Attack on Titan anime television series, subtitled Attack on Titan: The Final Season, is produced by MAPPA, chief directed by Jun Shishido, and directed by Yūichirō Hayashi, replacing Tetsurō Araki and Masashi Koizuka respectively. Scriptwriter Hiroshi Seko took over the series composition from Yasuko Kobayashi, and Tomohiro Kishi replaced Kyōji Asano as character designer due to the series switching production studios.[1] The season covers the "Marley" (chapters 91–106) and "War for Paradis" (chapters 107–116) arcs from the original manga by Hajime Isayama.

The season follows Gabi Braun and Falco Grice, young Eldian Warrior candidates seeking to inherit Reiner's Armored Titan four years after the failed mission to claim the Founding Titan. As Marley's dominance over competing nations begins to weaken due to the development of anti-titan weaponry, they plan to invade Paradis to develop their military using the resources on the island and also recover the Founding Titan. With tensions rapidly heating up and the Survey Corps on the Marley shoreline, Gabi, Falco, Reiner, and other Titans go to war with the Paradis soldiers as Eren Jaeger reveals his new plan of attack to Marley: annihilation. As war heats up and both sides take a heavy death toll, both the Marleyan Warriors and the Survey Corps must question the best approach to claiming victory over the other side. Eren's comrades begin to realize that he has begun to walk down a questionable path, while Gabi and Falco must combat their internal tensions over the supposed "devils" of Paradis.

On September 22, 2020, Crunchyroll and Funimation announced that the final season would be streaming "later this year".[2] The season premiered on NHK General TV on December 7, 2020 at 12:10 a.m. JST.[3] In the United States, Adult Swim's Toonami programming block began airing Funimation's English dub on January 10, 2021 at 12:30 a.m. ET.[4] Currently, 16 episodes have been listed for the home releases for the season.[5]

The score is directed by Masafumi Mima and composed by Hiroyuki Sawano and Kohta Yamamoto.[1] The opening theme is "My War" (僕の戦争, "Boku no Sensō") performed by Shinsei Kamattechan, and the ending theme is "Shock" (衝撃, "Shōgeki") performed by Yūko Andō.[6]

Notes

  1. ^ Cao Yi's name in Japanese is "Atsushi Tsukasa"
  2. ^ This episode was originally set to air on Adult Swim on March 7, 2021, however the February 2021 North American ice storm that hit Texas which resulted in a shutdown of its power grid caused production delays for Funimation's English dub. Adult Swim showed a rerun of the prior week's episode in its place.[9]
  3. ^ While airing its premiere on March 15, 2021, this episode was abruptly stopped due to a special report about an earthquake that occurred in the Wakayama Prefecture. It will air on March 22, 2021 on NHK General TV alongside episode 74.[10]
